WATERTOWN, S.D. (AP) — The family of outdoors artist Terry Redlin says a public viewing will be held Friday at the Watertown art center that bears his name.

Redlin died at the age of 78 on Sunday after a lengthy battle with Alzheimer's disease.

The viewing will be held at the Redlin Art Center from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. A private funeral and burial will be held at a later date.

Redlin is known for his paintings of wildlife and outdoors scenes. In the 1990s he was named America's most popular artist in annual gallery surveys conducted by U.S. Art magazine.

The family asks that friends and well-wishers consider donations in Redlin's memory to the Salvation Army Food Bank in lieu of flowers.
